Description

Powder application device and method for producing a reinforcing element from a powder material
[ technical field ] A method for producing a semiconductor device
The invention relates to a powder application device for at least partially meltable powder or powder material to be applied onto a feed element for producing a reinforcing element. These reinforcing elements are particularly useful for footwear, bags, orthopedic applications, and the like. Further, the invention relates to a method for producing such a reinforcing element from an at least partially meltable powder.
[ background of the invention ]
Such a reinforcing element may be produced using an apparatus as described in WO 2012/059367. The production is carried out such that a free-flowing, at least partially meltable powder is stored in a powder container, and a die plate is provided at the outlet of the powder container. The powder flows freely onto the conveyor belt through a die plate adapted to be closed by a slide. Providing a template allows the powder to be applied in a desired basic shape or close to a desired final shape. Subsequently, pressure and/or heat is supplied, so that the powder is compounded and the corresponding reinforcing element is produced.
Particularly in the case of reinforcing elements for shoes, and particularly with regard to the protection of the toes by the front cover or the area of the heel by the rear cover, it is desirable for such reinforcing elements to comprise differently reinforced areas.
[ summary of the invention ]
It is an object of the present invention to provide a suitable powder application apparatus and a corresponding method for producing a reinforcing element having differently reinforced regions.
According to the invention, this object is achieved with a powder application apparatus and method.
The powder application device according to the invention for at least partially meltable powder or powder material is used for applying a corresponding material to a supply element for producing reinforcing elements, in particular for shoes, bags, orthopedic applications or the like. The feeding element may be a conveyor belt, a stationary planar element, such as a receiving metal plate or the like. The powder application apparatus comprises a powder container for storing at least partially meltable powder. A die plate is provided at the outlet of the powder container. The template is used to define the basic or final shape of the reinforcing element to be produced. According to a preferred embodiment, the powder can flow freely out of the outlet under the influence of gravity. However, conveying elements such as conveyor belts, conveying elements, air streams, etc. may also be used. The powder travels through the die plate onto the feed member. Further, a closing device for opening and closing the outlet of the powder container is provided. Here, the closing device may be arranged upstream or downstream of the die plate, as seen in the direction of transport or transport of the powder. In particular, the closing device is designed as a slider (slider).
Preferably, there is no relative movement between the feed member and the outlet of the powder container and the die plate, respectively, during application of the powder onto the feed member. In the case of a feed element configured as a conveyor belt, this can be achieved in that the feed element remains stationary during the powder application and/or the powder application device or at least the outlet of the die plate or the powder container is moved at the same speed as the feed element configured, for example, as a conveyor belt. After the application or deposition of the powder onto the feed element configured as a tape or as a fixing element, the at least partially meltable powder can be compounded in a next step by supplying pressure and/or heat and the corresponding reinforcing element can be produced.
The powder application apparatus according to the invention comprises at least one barrier element (barrier element) for producing reinforcing elements with different material thicknesses or for forming regions with different stiffness. The barrier element reduces the supply of powder to the feed element in the correspondingly defined area. Thereby, the at least one barrier element reduces the amount of powder supplied in the predetermined area. Thereby, it is possible to produce a reinforcing element with areas of different material thickness, wherein in the areas where the barrier elements are arranged a smaller material thickness is achieved. The thickness of these regions is preferably from 0.2 to 3mm, in particular from 0.3 to 2.5mm, particularly preferably from 0.35 to 2.25 mm. These regions are less rigid regions. The reinforcing element produced according to the invention is preferably made of a single material of different thickness, and in particular formed in one piece.
As the barrier element, a baffle (baffle plate), a grid (grid), a pin (pin), a web (web), or the like may be provided. They may be arranged upstream of the die plate, seen in the direction of transport of the powder and/or in the plane of the die plate.
It is particularly preferred that the barrier element is connected to the formwork, preferably integrally formed with the latter. This provides the following advantages: in order to produce different reinforcement elements, the formwork can be easily replaced together with the corresponding barrier elements. In this case, it is preferred that the webs as barrier elements are connected to the formwork.
In particular, it is preferred that, in order to produce regions of small material thickness, a plurality of barrier elements, in particular a plurality of webs, are provided. In the case of barrier elements, which are configured, for example, as webs or pins, it is further preferred that they extend substantially parallel to one another and/or are configured in a grid-like pattern. For example, corresponding barrier elements, such as webs, can be provided at the edges of the formwork, so that reinforcing elements can be produced which have a region of smaller material thickness or lower rigidity in the edge region. The corresponding edge region is preferably designed in a partially, in particular fully circumferential manner.
It is particularly preferred that the powder is applied such that a preferably completely closed material layer is formed on the feed element and the conveyor belt, even in the region of the at least one barrier element. Thereby, due to the provision of the barrier element, a smaller amount of powder travels to the feeding element or flows freely onto the feeding element. Due to the particle size of the powder, the corresponding arrangement of the barrier elements or the like ensures that the powder flows or trickles together, so that regions with a smaller material thickness are created. This need not be done continuously, but instead it is also possible to create areas where no powder material is provided. However, it is preferred to form a completely closed material layer with a different material thickness.
By a suitable choice of the flowability of the powder and/or the shape of the barrier element and/or the distance between the die plate and the feed element and/or the time period for the powder supply, a layer of material which is preferably completely closed even in the region of the barrier element can be achieved. For example, the die plate and/or the feed element may also be vibrated during powder supply to ensure that the powder flows or trickles together even in the area cleaned by the barrier element.
For example, the barrier elements configured as webs or the like may be shaped such that they taper in the direction in which the powder is transported or free-flowing. In particular, the barrier element may have a triangular cross-section. For example, it is also possible to tilt the barrier element, which is designed as a web or as a baffle, so that the powder also flows freely into the region covered by the barrier element, but here forms a smaller material thickness. For example, webs having a variable width when viewed in top view are also advantageous for creating a closed layer of material. In particular, the web may have different shapes, widths, distances, etc. in different areas of the template in order to define the material thickness or the amount of powder supplied.
The distance between the die plate and the feed element is preferably as small as possible, and in particular in the range of 0.1mm to 0.5 mm.
The flowability of the powder used is preferably in the range from 20 to 30 seconds, measured with a 10mm nozzle according to EN ISO 6186.
As material for producing the reinforcing element according to the invention, in particular, powdered thermoplastic materials are suitable. The material can be produced, for example, by grinding particles. Preferred powder sizes are in the range of 50 μm to 900 μm, preferably 50 μm to 600 μm.
Further, the invention relates to a method for producing a reinforcing element, in particular for shoes, bags, orthopaedic applications or the like. According to a particularly preferred embodiment, the method according to the invention is carried out with the above-described powder application device according to the invention, wherein the above-described process based on the powder application device is preferred.
In the method for producing a reinforcing element according to the invention, the powder is applied to the feed element in the basic or final shape of the reinforcing element to be produced. Here, the powder is applied such that less powder is applied in certain areas, so that areas of the reinforcing element with a smaller material thickness are produced. Subsequently, the powder may be compounded by heat and/or pressure.
It is preferred that the powder is applied from the powder container onto the feeding element via a template having substantially the outer dimensions of the basic or final shape. In this case, the above-described barrier element is preferably used, which is particularly preferably connected to the template. According to a particularly preferred aspect of the invention, the powder is applied such that a preferably completely closed layer of material is formed on the feed element, even in the region of the at least one barrier element. As mentioned above, this may preferably be ensured by a proper flowability of the powder and/or the shape of the barrier element and/or the distance between the template and the feeding element and/or the time period for which the powder is supplied, based on the powder application apparatus.
It is particularly preferred to produce a reinforcing element with a small material thickness and thus a lower rigidity in the edge region. In particular, the edge region is configured in a completely circumferential manner.
In addition, the invention relates to a reinforcing element particularly suitable for shoes, bags, orthopedic applications and the like, wherein the reinforcing element comprises areas of different material thickness. In this case, it is preferred that the reinforcing elements are made of one and the same material and that the regions of different material thickness are not made of a multilayer material. The reinforcing element according to the invention is therefore preferably formed as a whole. In particular, the reinforcing element is produced by compounding at least partially meltable powders, which already have regions of different thickness, before compounding the powders by pressure and/or heat.
It is particularly preferred that the reinforcing element is produced by means of the above-described method, wherein it is further preferred that the above-described powder application device is used for this purpose.

[ detailed description ] embodiments
A powder application apparatus comprises a powder container 10 in which at least partially meltable powder 12 is arranged. At the outlet 14 of the powder container 10 a die plate 16 is arranged. For opening and closing the outlet 14, a closing device, which is configured in the illustrated embodiment as a slide 18, is provided. By opening the slide 18 in the direction indicated by arrow 20, the powder 12 is free to flow under gravity through the die plate 16 onto the upper surface 22 of the feed element 24, which in the illustrated exemplary embodiment is a conveyor belt.
In order to allow the application of the powder 12 to the upper surface 22 of the conveyor belt 24 almost in the form of the basic or final shape of the reinforcing element to be produced, the conveyor belt 24 is stopped, for example with the slide 18 in the open state.
In the different embodiments of the die plate 14 illustrated in fig. 2 to 5, similar and identical components are denoted by the same reference numerals.
The die plates each comprise a circumferential edge element 26, which is intended in particular to fasten to corresponding fastening means in the outlet 14 of the powder container 10. The frame-shaped element 26 is connected with a barrier element 28 configured as a web.
In the region of the barrier member 28, less powder 12 is free to flow onto the upper surface 22 of the conveyor belt 24. Thereby producing reinforcing elements with different material thicknesses. To complete the reinforcing element, the powder is compounded by applying pressure and/or heat.
In order to ensure different powder material thicknesses in the region of the barrier element 28, but on the other hand to apply a closed powder layer onto the upper surface 22 of the conveyor belt 24, the web 28 may have, for example, a triangular cross-section (fig. 6). Thus, for producing the reinforcing element 30, the powder material 12 is applied onto the upper surface 22 of the conveyor belt 24 such that, in the free-flow direction 32, a region 34 of smaller material thickness is created below the barrier element 28.
The barrier element 28 configured as a web may also be inclined with respect to the free-flow direction 32, for example, as illustrated in fig. 7.
